The biggest profitable event in FIFA has always been undoubtedly the World Cup, but it is precisely because FIFA's profits rely too much on the World Cup, so FIFA has been trying to open source.

In club events, FIFA took over the Toyota Cup and changed this event to the World Club, striving to make this event a major event comparable to the European Champions League. But so many years have passed, because the strength of the participating teams is uneven, the influence of the World Club has always been limited.

In the national team event, in addition to a World Cup, FIFA has also taken over and transformed a Federation Cup. All participating teams in this event are champion teams from the Intercontinental Cup on various continents under the leadership of FIFA.

According to convention, the teams participating in this Federation Cup are the hosts, namely Brazil, the host country of the next World Cup, the German team of the European Cup, the Uruguay team of South America, the champion of North America, Mexico, the champion of Asia, Japan, the champion of Oceania, Spain, and the African Cup champion team that has not yet been decided.

Since 2005, the World Cup held the Federation Cup in the World Cup the year before the World Cup. Of course, this does not rule out FIFA's own calculations, but this event also gives some teams the opportunity to participate in the events and hone the teams, and also conducts preparations for the World Cup hosting countries, which can be said to have won multiple goals in one fell swoop.

Continuing the FIFA practice over the years, they are paying more and more attention to the draw ceremony of each session. This time, the Brazilian Federation Cup is no exception. In addition to the invitations from the head coaches and Football Association officials of participating countries, there are also a group of superstars in Brazil.

This made Yang Chengyi enter the Annepy Convention and Exhibition Center in St. Paul where the lottery ceremony was located, and immediately welcomed a warm hug.

"Boss!" I saw the chubby Ronaldo grinning with his big mouth, revealing his iconic rabbit teeth.

Yang Cheng was tightly clamped by his hands, almost breathless, and pushed him away with force. "I said, are you going to murder?"

"Boss!" As soon as he finished speaking, another person patted his shoulder behind him. He almost scared him to death.

Looking back, Denilson, who was also very fat.

When Yang Cheng saw these two fat men who were both on the court in the past, they were probably breathing even after walking a few more steps. He felt a nightmare and deliberately reached out to wipe the sweat that did not exist on his forehead, shook his head vigorously, "He, Brazil is so scary, I'd better go back to Europe!"

Ronaldo had the lowest laugh, and he almost fell to the ground with laughter, and Denilson was not much better.

"Boss, it's not easy for you to come to Brazil. This time we come. We have to treat you well!" Ronaldo was filled with ambiguous eyes and kept squeezing his eyes.

Yang Cheng was also very moved. This Brazilian girl is famously enthusiastic, but he is also afraid that if it is published by the newspaper tomorrow, Yang Cheng goes out in Brazil, then this matter will be difficult to deal with. After all, Brazil is a mess. Think about Ferguson's experience in Brazil back then...

"You are not young anymore, don't just think about playing all day long, take care of your family more, Ronnie!" Yang Cheng put on an elder and gave a serious tone to teach Ronaldo a lesson.

"Don't worry, boss, Ronnie has recently divorced. After he is single, he can play without hesitation now!" Denilson said next to Yang Cheng with a smile.

"You are divorced again?" Yang Cheng was shocked.

Ronaldo smiled without any embarrassment or shame, and it seemed that divorce was nothing to him.

"Stop talking about me, boss, you come to Brazil and I treat you to São Paulo all the food, living, playing, and prostitutes!" Ronaldo looked very generous and patted his chest. He invited Yang Cheng to Brazil many times, but Yang Cheng never came. This time he came, he would definitely not be allowed to go easily.

I said it was okay to eat, stay and play, but this old guy also talked about prostitution?

"Who do you think I am?" Yang Cheng's face was covered in waterfall sweat. Ronaldo is really that kind of thing!

Although Yang Cheng has left the professional league, there are quite a few connections he has accumulated over the years and former Brazilian stars he has coached, and there are many people he knows, so when he enters the venue, the boss is naturally busy.

Finally, after finally getting rid of the entanglement, he was taken to the front row by the staff, and then he saw FIFA President Beckenbauer waving at him and pointing to the seat next to him, which was obviously reserved for him, just between Beckenbauer and Bosque.

"Vicent, I feel that I always suffer a loss when I sit with you!" Yang Cheng sat down in the seat with a wry smile.

Just in the chat, he got some news from UEFA President Olsen that among the participating teams in this Federation Cup, Brazil and Spain were designated as seeds for this event by FIFA.

In the draw rules of the Federation Cup, teams on the same continent avoided the draw in group stages, and the host was designated as seed teams, which everyone knows, while the other seed team depends on the national team ranking, competition championship and other considerations.

Spain and Germany are currently ranked first and second in the national team respectively. In addition, Spain is the last World Cup champion. Although the German team is the European champion of the new material, no matter from which level, the German team is still slightly worse, so Spain is planned to be a seed team.

In other words, the German team will definitely fight to the death of the host Brazil in the group stage!

Boske is a good guy who is cheap and is very good at being coach Anxi among the Slam Dunk. He laughed and said nothing, but he seemed to have the demeanor of everyone. Yang Cheng felt that his father was so slandering.

The lottery ceremony began with former Brazilian national team captain Kafu. He showed everyone the official use of the 2014 World Cup, and then Beckenbauer introduced the process of the Federation Cup. The event will start on June 15, 2013 and end on June 30. This will be the most important national team competition before the Brazilian World Cup.

Yang Cheng has already made a lot of preparations for drawing lots. He can't get the seed team and meets Brazil... Yang Cheng feels a big headache because he has a premonition that Group A may be turned into a group of death. Because with the strength of Brazil and Germany, the competition will be very fierce whether they join Mexico or Uruguay.

As it turned out, Yang Cheng's idea understood FIFA's plan, and Group A did eventually become the Death Group.

Brazil, Germany, Mexico, and Japan were assigned to the same group; Spain, Uruguay, Tahiti and Africa champion teams were assigned to the B group. In this way, no matter how you look at it, the competition in Group A was very cruel, because Japan and Mexico also had the strength to challenge Brazil and Germany, while Tahiti was a recognized team that flipped data.

After the lottery was over, Yang Cheng shook his head helplessly and stood up, preparing to get up to attend the dinner after the FIFA lottery ceremony. Boske, who was beside him, stood up with a spring breeze on his face. He also patted Yang Cheng's shoulder comfortably, as if telling him, brothers, you just accept your fate!

However, this is not that FIFA insists on killing the German team, because the German team cannot get the seed qualification. Then it is destined to touch Brazil. Whether it is Uruguay, Mexico or Japan, drawing any team will lead to very cruel competition, which is inevitable.

Of course, it does not mean that the strength of the group where Spain is located is not bad. Uruguay and the African champion teams, these two teams will definitely be able to challenge Spain, but this bug team is too strong.

After all, this world still believes in the law of the jungle, and whoever has the biggest fist has the advantage... There is a saying in Brazilian football, that there is a golden lake at the foot of the Andes!

The reason for this is to describe the emergence of talents from many Brazilian professional clubs such as Dagama, Flamenco, Fluminense and Sao Paulo at the foot of the Andes, among which Sao Paulo is the most regular, which has the most complete training base in Brazil.

Speaking of Sao Paulo’s training base, we have to talk about Kaka.

It is rumored that after the Sao Paulo club sold Kaka to AC Milan, it used the funds it received to build this training base. This was a considerable squander for the Brazilian football world at that time. At least not many clubs could invest such a large amount of funds to build such a training ground.

However, even now, this is still the most modern and well-equipped training base in Brazil. It not only has a special youth training camp, but also a large-scale first-team training area, but also has complete scientific research facilities. Among them, many equipment in the fields of sports and rehabilitation were directly introduced from Yang Cheng's research center.

At the beginning, the German Football Association wanted to find a training base, and focused on two areas, Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Because of the convenient transportation here, it is very convenient to any city from here to the World Cup, and the climate is also very suitable. It does not rain often, so it is suitable for use as a residence for the World Cup training camp.

When Yang Cheng heard of Sao Paulo, he remembered the São Paulo club, which was well-known in Brazilian football. He immediately mentioned the German Football Association that he had worked with. After sending people to focus on the inspection, he gave a high evaluation and believed that it was suitable for training camps for national teams.

This time, taking advantage of the opportunity to participate in the Federation Cup draw in Brazil, Yang Cheng specially brought Bierhof and accompanied by Ronaldo and De Nielsen to the training ground of the Sao Paulo Club.

"Welcome to Sao Paulo, Mr. Yang Cheng!" The famous Yang Cheng led the team to Sao Paulo. Club chairman Juventusio personally brought the club management to the gate to greet him. At least to them, Yang Cheng is already a noble and arrogant figure, and he is eager to get in touch with him.

"Hello, Chairman Juventus!" Yang Cheng returned the gift politely.

Then, Ronaldo, De Nelson and the people from the St. Paul Club were kind and walked into the training base.

Come in from the gate and step on the flat cement pavement, with green decorative garden scenery on both sides.

"On the right is the administrative office of our club's club!" Juventus introduced a three-story tile roof house on the right, which seemed a bit old. But it had a unique taste. The entire Sao Paulo training base has this old-school architectural style and is very local.

When a group of people walked to the fork in the road, they saw Juventus pointing to the road on the right to introduce the road.

"The one on the right is the training ground and the competition court leading to the youth team. The youth team's games and training are in this area. Just cross the river and are separated from the first team. In addition, the youth team usually does not follow this path, and there is a door to enter and exit there. If necessary, close the bridge by the river and separate the two sides completely!"

"To the left is the club's first-team training area. There are 3 standard playing fields as training grounds, and 5 small venues of different specifications and sizes. We also have a dedicated indoor football venue, and this one is a locker room and gym, an indoor swimming pool, etc.."

While walking, Yang Cheng listened to the introduction. He had never been to Sao Paulo, but the first impression that the club's training base gave him was that even if it was placed in Europe, it was definitely the top training base. Or I dare not say that it was the most scientific, but the facilities were perfect and the environment was first-class. It would definitely not be able to escape.

What satisfied Yang Cheng the most was the indoor football stadium. He liked to play football games on small fields and also liked to let players train in such small fields. So when he heard that there was an indoor football stadium, he immediately went over and took a look with interest.

Brazil's indoor football is very popular, and almost all famous stars have had the experience of indoor football. Even many excellent players such as Ronaldinho and Robinho have started to practice in indoor football. Many of their improvisations come from indoor football.

"It really doesn't look like a Brazilian club!" Bierkov also observed the training base in Sao Paulo for the first time. He also praised the other party's modernization and the perfection of equipment.

"They also arranged a dormitory for lunch breaks here, and our players can rest here without having to travel to and from the hotel, which is also very ideal for us!"

After hearing this, Yang Cheng nodded constantly. The most rare thing is that every dormitory here is equipped with air conditioning and a bathroom with a maximum size, and there are computers for Internet access in the entertainment room, table tennis, basketball, badminton and other sports. It is simply like a complete hotel.

You know, when Yang Cheng was in charge of Inter Milan, the club had not equipped with air conditioning in the players' dormitory. Nowadays, many European clubs have not done this, so it is really good that Sao Paulo has such facilities.

Another thing that satisfied Yang Cheng was that this training base was not in the downtown area of ​​Sao Paulo, but in the south of a small town called Cotia in the west of the city. If you train here, to be honest, unless someone guides the way, it would be not easy to get here if you are not familiar with the place.

Even if you touch it in and there are high walls around you, unless you sneak into the training base, don’t expect to spy on any confidential information. This is also in line with Yang Cheng’s requirement to keep it confidential.

"What do you think?" Bierkov was very satisfied with the place, but the person who actually made the decision was Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng thought for a while, looked around, nodded and said, "I have no problem either!"

At that time, the German team can first train at Sao Paulo during the Federation Cup. If you find any problems, you will gradually improve, or wait until the World Cup to change your base. This is not a difficult task.

"Then I'll start talking to them!" Bierhoff nodded.

Yang Cheng nodded, "I rarely come to Brazil and go around for a tour!" He is actually a travel enthusiast. Since he has come to Brazil, there is naturally no reason not to go around, especially the statue of Jesus in Rio de Janeiro not far away, which must be well appreciated... Brazil will become the most eye-catching area in the world's sports industry in the next few years. The 2013 Federation Cup, the 2014 World Cup, and the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, and three international competitions are all held in Brazil. This undoubtedly provides Brazil's sports, especially Brazilian football.

Sao Paulo attaches great importance to the cooperation with the German national team this time, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to improve the club's influence in international football, and even use the influence of the German team to open the players' channel to the Bundesliga. Therefore, Sao Paulo also gave him enough sincerity in the negotiations.

If the German team enters the Cotia training base in Sao Paulo, then Sao Paulo will provide the best convenience to the German team in terms of staff, waiters, food and accommodation. At that time, the German team can enter directly as long as they bring their own ingredients and luggage, and the rest of Sao Paulo will provide it.

Of course, all the things they provide are not free. The German team will provide Sao Paulo with a 300,000 euros in half a month during the Federation Cup, which is called helping Sao Paulo renovate the training base. In fact, it is a reward. Yang Cheng also promised to give discounts when purchasing some instruments in Sao Paulo, which is a reward.

But Yang Cheng also mentioned that he hopes that Sao Paulo can provide protection to the team in various aspects such as confidentiality and security. Juventusio will definitely do his best to cooperate with the German team's actions in these aspects. He will also convey this matter to the Cotia Municipal Government, and the municipal government will arrange police to escort the German team.

Yang Cheng was very satisfied with Juventus' arrangements, because after having the Cotia training base in Sao Paulo, the German team could arrange the hotel in a safer and more complete hotel in the city of Sao Paulo without having to live in the countryside of Brazil.

This is another great convenience for the German team.

After Brazil settled the lottery and the station, Yang Cheng began to enter his vacation. After Sheng Yi and others were kept by Ronaldo and others, Yang Cheng stayed for a few more days and did not leave until mid-December.
